Wouldn't that be a trip...

Hope he does make it out...

I was out there the first day...early morning, overcast skies...
Didn't get a "Cabin View" as Tony was still not comfortable with the new setup...

Videos are a bit "rough"...:|err way out of "practice"...

28' Speedster Ilmor/Indy heading out...
YouTube - Clip 28L 02

Heading out for the 2nd run...crappy weather, can't see chit...
YouTube - Clip 28L 06

Crossing the bottom of the speed zone...
YouTube - Clip 28L Last

Ilmor came out last Sunday and they got the system re-programmed...hit 151 before they ran out of lake at Elsinore and the boat was still pullin' HARD...

Boat is on it's way to Canada...

Here's some shots of the finished product...

Tony's confident that the boat will hit 160 w/42's...that's def. hauling the mail...

He's flying up this week-end to give the customer an operation orientation...

Shue

What's your official opinion on this:

2003 Icc
540 blower with exactly 973 hp on the dyno
Bmax drive (no shorty, cone, etc)
Hydro p4x labbed propped to 6000 rpm HP limit

Top speed?

Thanks
